EMBEDDED RF VERTICAL INTERCONNECT FOR FLEXIBLE CONFORMAL ANTENNA

摘要

An RF signal transition includes a channelized microstrip transmission structure, and a coplanar wave guide structure in electrical communication with the channelized microstrip transmission structure. A caged troughline transition structure is in electrical communication with the coplanar wave guide structure. A caged coaxial transmission structure is in electrical communication with the troughline transition structure. The signal transition may be embedded in a flexible printed wiring board structure with a circulator for a conformal antenna structure.
